I built an offline invoice generator — here's why I got tired of subscription tools

As a solo developer, I invoice clients occasionally. Nothing fancy — just a few items, a total, and a PDF to send.
But every tool I tried had the same problem:

Create an account
Verify your email
Choose a plan
Oh, the feature you need? That's the premium tier.

I just wanted to make an invoice. Why is this so complicated?
So I built BillForge.
It's a lightweight invoice generator. No login, no account, no internet required. Open it in your browser and start invoicing.
What it does:

4 professional invoice templates
PDF export
Multi-currency support
Dark & Light mode
Works completely offline

Why one-time pricing?
Subscription fatigue is real. Every tool wants $10-20/month. For something I use occasionally, that adds up fast. BillForge is $9 once — yours forever.

If you're a freelancer or solo developer tired of over-engineered invoicing tools, give it a look.
